Every player needs some confirmation that what they're doing is working. The thing fans don't see on Sunday is everything we've done in practice. I might make a catch in a game that I've made 1,000 times in practice. Everybody's number gets called in different games.

That's a question a lot of people wonder, we wonder, and it's a question we don't have the answer to as tight ends. Our job is to run the routes, block whoever we're supposed to block, and it's on the quarterbacks and coaches to decide who they want to throw the ball to -- it depends on who is open at that time and who will give us the best chance to win games.
